October commemorates Director of State Advocacy Corey Surber's 32nd anniversary working with Saint Alphonsus, which is made especially meaningful as she exhibits her photography as our Artist of the Month. Working in government relations, Surber has spent her career navigating stress and challenging work, and in 2011, that came to a head when she began experiencing anxiety attacks. She turned to daily nature walks to manage it. “Nature is an incredible healer, and my anxiety symptoms resolved almost completely when I took time for “nature therapy” on a regular basis,” Surber shared. “When I started my nature walks, I enjoyed capturing photos of sunsets, wildlife and other scenery on my smartphone camera and sharing them on social media, to perhaps inspire others to spend time outside as well. “ Over time, she turned from nature walks to adventure trips where she photographed iconic scenery and wildlife in Grand Teton National Park, Sawtooth National Recreation Area, Serengeti National Park, Tarangire National Park, and the Ngorongoro Crater in Tanzania. Join us in congratulating Corey on her work and art! And be sure to take a trip down our hallway this month to view her photography capturing of the American West and Africa. Prints are available for purchase in our gift shop with proceeds going to the Saint Alphonsus Auxiliary. #ourcallingisyou #artistofthemonth #trinityhealth

Hispanic Heritage Month, September 15-October, honors the rich contributions of the Hispanic community - from history and art to culture and advocacy. “Hispanic Heritage Month is an opportunity to highlight and remember the contributions that the Hispanic/Latine community has made in the U.S,” shared Marielena (Mari) Vega from Saint Alphonsus Community Health and Well Being. “It is also an opportunity for a call to action to support these communities and learn about the many things that affect their livelihoods.” Vega was honored earlier this year as one of USA Today’s Women of the Year, which recognizes women who have made a significant impact within their communities. “As an individual belonging to this community, I center myself and my work around my lived experiences to support my community and (attempt to be) an agent of change.” Vega’s colleagues and community see this reflected in her daily work. “Mari is such an important leader within our Community Health Worker team,” said Rebecca Lemmons, Regional Director of Community Health & Well-Being. “She leads by example by not only caring for our most vulnerable patients, making sure they are thriving, not just surviving, but also carrying that care into the community with her advocacy and support for our Hispanic and Latino neighbors in her spare time.” Thank you for your contributions to our community, this month and every month, Mari!
